M. Frich bravely decided not to include the Eiffel Tower in his photo. 

The only time I’ve ever been in Paris it rained most of the week.  That did allow me to go sit in a cafe and drink Kronenberg beer one evening while watching people and cars go by on wet city streets, which was pretty romantic.

You read German, do you?

Wait...isn’t that the Eiffel tower off to the right side of the Cathedral? At least you’ve been to Paris once. I may never get there the way the world is going.

I read German on about a second grade level.  I use a German-English dictionary for the really big words. ;) It was not a complimentary article. Comparing the president to a difficult defiant child might be called a little insulting. Not that he apparently didn’t deserve it. Sounds like he blew in there like hell on wheels and got slapped down but good. Must have been a fun time. At least he didn’t steal the silver.

Oh, silly me.  I neglected to scroll right.  Of course the tower is there, along with Notre Dame de Paris (the huge cathedral with the flying buttresses).

I was there as part of a four-week European trip when I was 33.  I was treating myself to help recover from an unrequited love.  Spent two weeks on an American Express bus through Germany, Austria, and Switzerland and a week each in Paris and London.  I was with my parents, although we didn’t exactly hang out together in the evenings.
